How to stay away from Google and other evil tech giants: Difference between revisions

* '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/https-everywhere/ https Everywhere]''' Is another must-have that lets you browse the web via secure https if possible and block sites that don't have https set up or at least warn before you access them.

* '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/multi-account-containers/ Multi Account Containers]''' is a great addon by Mozilla that let's you put the sites you browse into containers so the sites don't know what other sites you are on. You can enhance containers features with '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/switch-container-plus/ Switch Containers Plus]''' and '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/temporary-containers/ Temporary Containers]'''. The latter basically offers the same function as Firefox's private window, only in a tab instead of a new window. You can set up the addon so all links you click that would change the domain you're on are opened in a new temporary container tab.

** If you use uMatrix then the following otherwise recommended addons are basically redundant: '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/privacy-badger17/ Privacy Badger]''', '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/decentraleyes/ Decentraleyes]''', '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookie-autodelete/ Cookie Auto Delete]''', '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/librejs/ GNU Libre JS]''', '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/noscript/?src=search No Script]'''.

* Notable mentions: '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/location-guard/ Location Guard]''', '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/terms-of-service-didnt-read/ Terms of Service; Didn't Read], '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/privacy-settings/ Privacy Settings]'''.
